Lamp

.                             Let your light shine, today
                          Let you light shine, forever more
                       Guide my feet in the night and erase
                   The ghostly shadows from my sight, sit close
                Glow and calm my fears, ease my fears, stay near
                                    Like my dear  friend 
                                    Never leave my side
                                    The  amber glow  is
                                    Warm and   sensual
                                    A comfort to my eye
                                  Shadows  surround  you
                                     Darkness fears  you
                                     Dampness      dries
                                     Before your warmth
                                     Glowing        friend
                                     Faithful        friend

Gert W. Knop May 17, 2010 at 5:49 AM Nice shape and tribute to a warm and shiny light, Doris! I hate these cold neon lights. Now we are forced to buy energy saving bulbs which give sometimes also a cold white light and not a warm cosy yellow one. Good job and thanks for your comments...Gert
